Olympian Trayvon Bromell's Net Worth May Surprise You
According to All Famous Birthday, Bromell had an estimated net worth of $1 million to $3 million. Sponsorships can play a big role in a professional athlete's net worth. Back in 2015, Bromell ditched his NCAA eligibility to go pro after signing with agent Ricky Simms, who also represents Usain Bolt, according to NBC Sports.
After signing with Simms, Bromell also signed a multi-year contract with New Balance. The track star had his family in mind when making his decision to go pro, according to Sports Illustrated. He said that if he ever got injured, his "value would drop" and his family "felt like the opportunity [to sign with New Balance] was in [their] face."
It would be a year later when Bromell did in fact injure himself at the 2016 Olympic games. However, the 2021 games are a different story. Now that Bromell is favored to win at the Tokyo Olympics, he could be looking at potential new sponsorships as well as around $37,500, according to Indeed, if he does take home the gold medal.
